Fox News’ ‘The Five’ In Agreement That Bristol Palin Is A Brave Hero For Getting Pregnant

During Tuesday’s broadcast of Fox News’ afternoon gabfest The Five, co-host Greg Gutfeld began a segment with a monologue where he presented the notion that celebrity wannabe and abstinence spokesperson Bristol Palin was actually a hero for getting pregnant out of wedlock for a second time in her life. In Gutfeld’s opinion, Palin could easily have kept the pregnancy a secret or even gotten an abortion, which would have totally been celebrated by those on the left because all they want are more and more abortions. Instead, she bravely announced the pregnancy in the face of ridicule and will go forward with bringing another one of God’s gifts into the world.

Gutfeld, who fancies himself a comedian and satirist, took aim at Bill Maher and Wendy Williams for making Palin the butt of jokes, specifically regarding her stance on abstinence and her mother’s political career and religious beliefs. While he admitted during the segment that the jokes write themselves regarding Palin’s hypocrisy, he felt that the left was only angry because Bristol didn’t take the easy route and just get an abortion. For Gutfeld, her bringing humiliation upon herself rather than seeking the convenience of terminating the pregnancy without anyone knowing makes her a heroine to be looked up to.

After Greg’s defense of Bristol, he turned it to the panel for discussion. To absolutely nobody’s surprise, the Fox crew were all in agreement. Yep, Bristol Palin is super-brave, and she isn’t like those other harlots who totally use abortion as a form of birth control. No, sirree bob. It doesn’t matter that she made hundreds of thousands of dollars making bullshit abstinence speeches telling others to never have sex out of wedlock. It certainly doesn’t matter that she tried to kickstart a reality TV career based mostly on her being Sarah Palin’s daughter who got pregnant when she was a teenager. She got pregnant out of wedlock a second time? HERO!

Even Juan Williams, the supposed token liberal on the panel, came to the defense of Bristol Palin, claiming that even though she’s a hypocrite and has attacked others for their beliefs — I wonder where she learned that from — she is still an expectant mother who is bringing another life into this world and deserves our respect. In general, the whole segment was all about vilifying the so-called liberal media for calling out Bristol’s hypocrisy and double-standards and positioning her as not only a victim, but someone who is extremely courageous and should celebrated.

In other words, Dan Savage was absolutely right.

  1. This GUTLESS WENCH took money from people LOTS OF MONEY,,,in fact,SHE raked in $262000 as an abstinence ambassador in 2011. To tell them how great ABSTINENCE is, Now she’s pregnant again.This time for a married man..”The government gave more than $1 billion in 2003 to organizations it considers … to religious groups to help them to apply for federal funds, and websites
    Does the government fund abortions? Does the government pay …
    womensissues.about.com/od/abortion/f/Does-The-Government-Fund…
    Does the government fund abortions? Do taxpayer dollars pay for abortion? Although the short answer is no

    “Revoke faith based funding!
    We were told the businesses run by the churches were not extensions of the church. They lied.
    Now we see that they’re happy to take money from taxpayers of all faiths (and none) and use that money to push their beliefs on their employees who are not Catholic.
    Catholics got 2.9 billion last year for these ‘businesses’ Now they say they are churches and must foist their beliefs on employees, regardless of their faith.

    Defund the Catholic Church. No tax breaks, no faith based funding, no Medicare payments, no Medicaid payments. AND make them pay taxes like every one else
    DEFUND RELIDGEION..NOT PLANNED PARENTHOOD

  2. Excellent article Justin. These fools colain about the Obama girls nbot dressing properly and this phony’s kid is knocked up twice

  3. By definition alone she is a hypocrite. (a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, especially a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.)

    Neo-christians today justify their actions, as if one only needs to say something is wrong then their vindicate. Jesus said you will know the tree by its fruit. Just because one can recite poetry that does not make one a poet. Lets call this for what it is… She is a Neo-christians, especially whose actions belie stated beliefs.

  4. I had my son because I wanted him.
    I planned him and I spent a year in “Pre” therapy and “Family Counseling” before he was even born,
    not to mention the Child Birthing classes and the Kundulini Yoga with Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa,
    the” Pre-Natal Yoga Trainer for Madonna.

    No, I did not have an IRA or 501K.

    Hell, I didn’t even have any WD-40 to my name!

    But I wanted the best for my son and I still do!

    And I also agree that any “Human Being” who wants a child in this “Over-Populated Society” should also have to
    go through at least one year of parental training and family planning before bringing another NEW SOUL into this world.

    These NEW souls are precious and should not to be condemned to the care of humans with mental illness.

  5. It’s because conservatives are always promoting abstinence. Something that DOES NOT WORK!
    Liberals aren’t out preaching abstinence BRISTOL IS … that’s why its fodder for mockery.
